Abstract
|
Heijnen’s study analyzes the use of Roman imperial portraits in formulating changes in imperial leadership. It discusses the creation of official portrait types, the decision to present the Roman emperor in a certain type of attire, and the choice to place the statue or bust of the emperor in a certain display environment. It argues that, on all three levels, traditional modes of representation were crucial in formulating changes in imperial leadership
